Stress Management

Today I got my bathroom cleaned up and my two year old spread shampoo all over the floor. I came in to find her playing in the just cleaned toilet. I'd been having my back turned washing and folding clothes. Welcome to my life.

On top of it I realized that I was supposed to get two book reports turned in. This could mean, "I wanted an A and thought that Book Report II was to be turned in on 20 July and now I can get no higher than a C." OR it could mean, "I wanted an A but by only doing one book report I can get no higher than a C and I do not have to do some of the other projects." I have to check it out with the prof but if I can choose the latter, I will have less stress. He has over 200 students online so I won't beg or plead-- he says, "No begging or pleading. Don't be late."

About Me

I used to be right of center politically, and while I haven't changed, my family members (the ones who I have birthed and to whom I am married) call me a liberal. I don't really think that I am-- my views are all over the place, as I think are the views of most people. One of my adult children called me the family's "token liberal" (not the toking liberal, I am not like that!) so I decided to make it my blog title. I write about what I do in my community that matters to me and I share with everyone who cares to read what I think.
